Shark Acts as TiVo for Your Tuner

How many times have you heard a tune on the radio and wish you had snagged it for your iPod, but you missed the opening notes? Wish no more, for Griffin’s recently upgraded Shark 2 acts like a TiVo for your tuner. With a USB connection, the device saves the music through your computer that you can mix later and add to your iTune playlist. You can also set up timed broadcasts with its software and it’s compatible for both PC and Mac.

Available with an antenna extension you also can receive a free edition of Snaptune one, which turns the Shark into a veritable do-all by scheduling, exporting, cataloging, and labeling artist and album information. At a MSRP of $49.99, we think it looks rather gnarly, dude.
